Green & Co.'S report on cotton futures says:
1T has been nominal sort of market, with
prices, after shading a triiie, recovering to
nearly last nights figures and the market clos
in and there was little more selling to-day, the
latter apparently on Liverpool account. Large
operators appear to be taking matters quietly
and aifordins no guide, while the general trader
stands Off perplexed between the daily growing
strength of the statistical situation at home and
the Indifference and apparent slightly easy feel
ing abroad. Positive opinions over the situation
are very difficult to obtain"
